What do you do if you notice that some one is deppressed?

Answer 1

That really depends on why they are sad.

If their best friend just died, the best thing to do would be to give your condolences to the person and let them be. At that time, nobody would want to be bothered.

If someone is sad because their favorite team just lost in the World Series, express disappointment and be hopeful, saying things will be better next year. If they are an avid sports fan, it would be better to leave them alone.

If someone is sad because it is Monday, just cheer them up.

Answer 2

Well it depends, you have to think about it, there are many causes of depression and some may not be "Depression". Depression is a chemical imbalance in their body so here are some tips. If they have been depressed and someone recently died they will most likely get over it. However if they're not eating, or eating too much, sleeping too much or too little, weight gain or loss excessively they may be really depressed! There are also different levels of depression. Also if they may commit suicide talk to someone RIGHT AWAY!!! However this is a hard topic so bring it up gently or with their parents depending on their age. Offer a therapist that may help or someone you know or use. This is a very delicate subject to bring up so bring it up gently and don't go around accusing people of having it either! They may just be having a hard time or something so talk with them and help them out but if you can't help them or they really are having a hard time they may need to be on medicine(s) so refer them to a therapist but bring it up gently! It's very hard to help them out especially in the beginning, but just make sure especially they're not going to hurt themselves or others, if so get help immediately!!! Also just try to help them out and gently offer to refer to someone or give them a number to call if they want/need one.
